Yep, the return is the band and a piece of wooden paint brush is the trigger, the longer the stick the easier it is to work it. It's fairly easy to push at this point but I wouldn't want the lever much shorter. I got the mouth moving today, I'll hopefully get a little video shot of it tomorrow, thanks for watching

Love your work. The dragons are fantastic!

Thanks Melaine9

The eyes look great! Very smooth action!

Thanks Na

Love it, can't wait to see more!!

I've now got the mouth moving:
Mouth Moving on the Baby Dragon Puppet, THOUGHTS?

Yeah I think it works pretty good. Looks like maybe you used lycra/stretch fabric covered in latex for the jaw connection. Am I right on that?

I think the addition of the teeth would really sets things off.

He is coming along nicely.

Thanks Shawn, you're right about the jaw connection that's exactly what I did, I've jumped to making the arms move now (I've got latex skins for them) and then I'll probably do the teeth, thanks for the feedback

So impressive, You make me want to expand my ideas and learn more. Thank you.
